2-Star Hotels in Gotemba

This hotel is super convenient, located just a minute or two's walk from Gotemba Station. To get to Gotemba Premium Outlets, you can catch the free shuttle bus right from the station plaza, which runs every fifteen minutes. Check-in and check-out are self-service via a machine that offers a Chinese language option. Toiletries are available for self-collection in the lobby. Breakfast is free and, while simple, it's great that they offer a good selection of vegetables. The rooms are quite small, perfect for solo travelers. There's also a fantastic yakiniku restaurant nearby!

The hotel location is very easy, right outside the Gotemba station. They offered free breakfast buffet with great variety of Japanese and English breakfast options. They even offered a free drink an curry rice meal for dinner as our stay. The hotel room offered an excellent view of Mount Fuji as you can see in the picture included .

Continuing from last year, I used it on a business trip (3 nights and 4 days) this year as well. The room is an image of a slightly old-fashioned business hotel. In the large communal bath (although small), stretch your legs and slowly soak in the bathtub. There is also a coin laundry, which is helpful. You can also have a cup udon or grilled rice ball (using a microwave) for free for a midnight snack. Breakfast is small in variation, but this room rate is the price. The front desk 々 was very kind and very good. It's not a high-grade hotel, but it's a satisfying hotel for me. I will definitely use it on business trips next year.

PROS - For this price, the rooms are considered large/adequately spacious, not squeezy or cramped at all, which we think is a steal!! - We especially love the triple bed room, it comes with a mini room consisting of a table and sofa for sitting. - While the triple room we had didn't have a Mt. Fuji view, the twin room we booked did, so we are glad that at least one of the rooms has the Mt. Fuji view. - The staff at the reception are friendly and welcoming to us. They can speak English too. - Amenities like tea bags, toothbrushes, combs, shavers, etc., are available at the first floor for you to take, there's no need to bring your own. CONS - Hardly any, maybe the flat pillows, but you can take extra pillows from the level 1 area. We were initially worried about the odd smell mentioned in some other reviews, but luckily our rooms are fine and are also pretty clean -- this is the most important factor for us, as we have a toddler. Everything was perfect, except maybe the location is slightly far, but still walkable (7 to 10min). Do bring an umbrella with you though, as there is no shelter from the station to the hotel. Overall, this is a very decent hotel that exceeded our expectations, we highly recommend it and would definitely stay again next time! PS: Attractions reachable from Gotemba Stn (within 20min-1hr) include Gotemba Premium Outlets, Fuji Safari Park, Komakado Kazaana Cave, Lake Yamanaka, Numazu Deep Sea Aquarium, etc

I think it is a substantial amenities and cleaning situation among business hotels. I think it's great.

Very good location to watch Mount Fuji, if you want to stay in a traditional Japanese-style hotel, you can consider it. The front desk service was good, and the smiley face masked the shortcomings of the equipment.
